The fashion house with a great heritage

Founded in Florence in 1885 by Garibaldo Gherardini, a leading figure in the local leather manufacturing business at the time and a member of the highly reputable Gherardini family, the iconic Italian brand Gherardini celebrates its 130th year. Gherardini, with its long heritage is regarded as the original inventor Made in Italy and a symbol of Italian excellence around the world. From the popular Piattina shopper that accessorised the outfits of almost every woman in the 1970s, to the classical 1212 leather satchel which is crafted from house's revolutionary 'Softy' fabric, and the sleek 1960s Bellona bag, Gherardini has always been synonymous with style, luxe and craftmanship. In celebration of its 130th anniversary this year, the house has released a special edition of the Piattina bag and produced in classic Softy fabric. Taking the opportunity, let’s have a look at the timeless fashion of Gherardini.
